I watched on Tuesday when it was accidentally uploaded but I spent the entire episode thinking so much about whether it would contribute to view counts and if I would be sad having no new OLTL for a week. I don't even really remember what happened but I think it was good. I will watch again tomorrow.

*Hmm, either way, that made me crack up. I could sense tons of pain in Jack when he threw that glass. Todd can be such a pushy jerk at times, but I can't help but root for him over Vic.

*This is the most investment I've seen on a Viki story in ages.

*Also, I FF'd the Michelle scenes. Why all this time devoted to a character we haven't even met yet?

I know.. I have to say PP has been very good with young Andrew, love how are doing what ABC never did with him.. I can see Jack is completely torn and is going down a dark road much like Todd did.. I kind of would like if they gave Jack a theme, like how Todd got a theme..

I know, I love how Viki is a major part of this story, and everyone said she's a supporting character..

about Michelle, I guess they are kind of doing the background and setting the stage for her entrance, it's been rarely done well before,

also Dani REALLY wants to jump Matthew's bones..

True, but I hope they don't make him go down the rape path, either as the perpetrator or as a victim. That's the biggest character assassination there is. Maybe a medical emergency arises in which Todd has to donate an organ or something to Jack might work? I always thought Jack would be better served as being a good guy more in the mould of an AJ Chandler, with some edge here and there.

In other storylines,
*I really don't get how Nat went from mooning over John to suddenly giddy over some silly date with Cutter.
*Clint never knew how to mind his own business. I liked Queen Victoria throwing her weight around ("this is MY PAPER") like the bossbitch that she always has been.
*Destiny talks about being an independent single mom...but she takes cash from Bo and comes over for random playdates. Please.

Jack a victim of rape??? That's interesting.. I agree, I don't want to see him go down the same dark, twisted path, while waiting to see today's ep, i was rewatching when Todd terrorized Nora at the beach house. I don't want Jack to do anything like that.. I want him to be a balance between both of his parents, but I want him to be more like Blair..I do love the whole medical emergency scenario, that would be great for them..

I guess Natalie hasn't gotten any in over a year, while John almost slept with Sam..

yeah it's classic Clint... I know love seeing Viki want to do things her way, seems like something VICTORIA LORD would do.

I guess Destiny wants all the help she can get from Bo and Nora, since Matthew is busy doing his own thing

      I suspect we would have had a few withdrawals next year if Israel had won. I don't think many people would relish going to Jerusalem as things stand now. Not to mention it would have been a prime target for terrorist attacks.   
    • And they've given us plenty. Sets, outdoor scenes, music licensing, etc. And that was the point of me using DAYS... so. It's obvious the casino set is not intended for long-term use, hence why it's likely it wasn't as evolved as the other community sets, etc.

    • I just had thought of how to save the Perkins family. (Inspired by Rituals) -- What if Marisa Perkins was Augusta Lockridge's sister? Fictionally, they could've both been local girls, one married rich and one married poor. Originally, I was going to suggest that Marisa be Sophia's sister, but then I realized Joe and Kelly would've been first cousins.  Of course, it would've truly inspired Sophia was if Rosa Andrade sister, with Rosa and Santana moving in to help CC raise the kids once Sophia disappeared.  While this could've avoided both gross CC and Santana affairs, the times were not right for a story about intersectional inequity.
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJxW5DLJLId/ Another World is my forever favorite soap opera. But it's finale is almost universally hated by its fans. What this is, is an edit where I've deleted everything I didn't like!!!
    • The Perkins family had potential to be a nice alternative to the more dysfunctional Capwells and wackier Lockridges... but I think a few factors did in the family. 1) Recasting of Joe Perkins 2) Bad casting of the Perkins Patriarch, and the one note writing for that character. 3) Lack of antagonistic interaction between the Capwells/Lockridges and Perkins.  (There was no awkwardness between Jade/Ted.. or CC disapproving of his son being friends with that Perkins girl, etc). 4) Wasting of Jade thus wasting the potential of the actress (which was realized on Days of Our Lives).  She had more potential than Laken oddly enough. The only member of the Perkins family that had appeal and a somewhat thought out story arc was Amy.  
    • @GymnastGuyThanks for posting the three new Capitol 1985 episodes today. The two labeled March 12, and 13 are misidentified. The March 12 labeled one actually aired November 12 1985 which I figured out because Kenny Rogers' movie Wild Horses aired November 12th and it was announced over the "March 12" Cap credits. In addition, Craig Carlson is listed in the April credits but not the March. Craig left Capitol sometime after July 1985 before he rejoined OLTL in the credits by October 15, 1985; he was replaced on Cap by Radcliffe and Hamner. In these posted episodes Radcliffe/Hamner names appear in the March 85 episodes but not in the April.
